An Interview with Amit Majmudar (new episode)
Om avsnittet
An episode from 4/3/24: Tonight, I interview the poet, novelist, and translator, Amit Majmudar. You can find a full list of his books here, but we spend most of our time talking about his 2018 translation of the Bhagavad Gita, Godsong. Along the way, we also get his take on many of the preoccupations of this podcast: how a life devoted to creativity, religion, family, and an awareness of history and tradition can still be maintained in this strange time of ours.
His book recommendations at the end are:
- John D. Smith’s abridged translation of the Mahabharata
- S. Radhakrishnan's translation of the principal Upanishads
- The Princeton edition of the Ramayana
- Roberto Calasso’s Ardor
You can support Human Voices Wake Us here, or by ordering any of my books: Notes from the Grid, To the House of the Sun, The Lonely Young & the Lonely Old, and Bone Antler Stone. I’ve also edited a handful of books in the S4N Pocket Poems series.
